Escape sequences in C programming language:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Escape sequences in C are combinations of characters that represent special characters or actions that cannot be represented easily or visibly by regular printable characters. These sequences are used within string literals and character constants (enclosed in single quotes) to convey specific meanings. <\/span><\/p>\n

Escape sequences start with a backslash (\\<\/code>) followed by a character or combination of characters.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the previous article, we explored one <\/span>\\n<\/b> escape sequence, which is nothing but a new line or line feed. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Apart from that, there are various other escape sequences available that you can use in your program along with the printf<\/a><\/span> function, and you can also use this with other standard library functions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are some commonly used escape sequences in C:<\/span><\/p>\n
